Plow and Hearth sent us an oak personalized crock for our front steps. I chose the maroon color, and love it. Our front door is close to the same color and I think it looks really nice on the front steps, and very welcoming. I would actually show you a picture of it, but this is the best I can do:

But, unfortunately it got buried the day after we got it and is currently under the 27 inches of snow and you can’t see it. If you look just below the front door to the left its the lower of the 2 snow mounds. I didn’t do our street address, I did our last name on top, “family” across the bottom and for the numbers, the year we got married (2003).

I love this crock. I can’t wait to fill it with flowers for each season, and enjoy it when I pull into my driveway!!

Part of why I wanted to check out this crock is to get some decorating done. I’m almost embarassed to admit that we’ve been here 5.5 years and I haven’t hung things on the walls in every room still. My husband and I are so bad about making decorating decisions! We just cannot commit to things. Sigh. I was excited to have the opportunity to work with Plow and Hearth and choose something for our home. At long last, we’ve got a real, finished walkway to our front door (done by Mr. Bargains over the summer) and a light at the end of the walkway…and now, the front door is painted and has a pretty crock complementing it!
